IDEAL, Most talked about component of our wedding
Kathy officiated our wedding on June 10, 2023 and was an absolute dream to work with. Of all the vendors we hired for our wedding, Kathy was our favorite, and the ceremony she facilitated is the main thing our guests are STILL talking about almost six months later.
There are so many things Kathy did that made her easy and ideal to work with. To start, our first meeting with her lasted almost an hour. Even before we committed to working with her, she took so much time to get to know us. Then, she had us fill out a lengthy form sharing our story and vision for our ceremony in writing. Then, she came to our house and met with us for THREE HOURS to ask us even more questions and get an even deeper understanding of who we are. Throughout the entire process, she was incredibly communicative via email, stuck with the exact timeline she outlined with us from the beginning, and just generally had so much positive energy about marriage that rubbed off on us!
There were two sections of our ceremony script that were extremely important to us and that we wanted to write ourselves - one was a tribute to my mom who passed away just over a year before our wedding, and the other was a tribute to those who fought for marriage equality. Kathy was super accommodating in incorporating these sections into the script she was writing and using the language we provided her with. Aside from these two sections, Kathy wrote a ceremony that was completely customized to us, down to the story of how we met, our aspirations for the future, the phrases we used instead of simply saying “I do”, and how we wanted to be introduced at the very end before we kissed and walked down the aisle. Everything was so organized that we didn’t even do a rehearsal and it all went so smoothly.
Lastly, it’s worth mentioning that our officiant was the vendor we spent the most time finding. As a queer couple, we weren’t vibing with sooooo many of the people we interviewed because they would either appear very uncomfortable, say something that made us uncomfortable, or just ask/say inappropriate things. Kathy made us feel seen and heard and is a true believer in marriage equality in a non-surface-level way.
We would HIGHLY, HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend Kathy as your officiant 🙂

Oh Julia and Lisa - I am so at a loss for words and I know how unusual that is for this "chatty Kathy"! You have blown me away with your kindness in sharing your experience with me but more importantly with the beautiful women you are inside and out. It's was my honor to get to know you both. Thank you for working with me to create a ceremony that had so much impact on you and your guests. I can't even begin to say how touched I am to read this. Thank you so very much!! -

B and Q Wedding
Dear Kathy,
Words cannot express how grateful we are that you performed the most wonderful, heartfelt, tender, and warmly humorous ceremony we could have asked for. Everyone was smiling, laughing, crying and remembering their own weddings hearing your words of love and life moments which brought us together. Thank you again, from our hearts, for making our union an unforgettable moment to remember for all our years to come.Dear Kathy,

Personable JOP that is forever a part of our lives now!
Where to begin with Kathy - SHE IS AMAZING. It was so relaxing to work with someone who was as organized as I was! She made wedding planning very easy for us and made the ceremony absolutely AMAZING! For rehearsal, Kathy put together an organized cue sheet making it very easy for everyone to know what their respective jobs were. Kathy helped us understand what different traditions are out there - some of which we had no idea about! Everyone loved the ceremony and there was not a dry eye in the crowd!
Kathy loves what she does and it really shows. She cares about each and every one of her clients and takes the time to get to know them as a couple - no one is just another client to her. The first ZOOM meeting was what sold us - easy to talk to, fun, spunky, caring - but most of all... personable. She cared about us and it was not getting another client.
I would 1000/10 recommend Kathy with nothing but the highest respect for what she does! Everyone loved the ceremony and Kathy is FOREVER a part of our lives!Where to begin with Kathy - SHE IS AMAZING. It was so relaxing to work with someone who was as organized as I was!

Absolutely Phenomenal
Kathy is absolutely phenomenal — I don’t even know where to begin. From the moment we met Kathy she exuded kindness and professionalism and you can tell she LOVES what she does. She truly gets to know you and wants your ceremony to be authentic and special — nothing about what she does is “cookie cutter.” Our guests were blown away by how personal our ceremony was, to the point that they thought Kathy was a friend of ours. You will not regret trusting Kathy with your special day!Kathy is absolutely phenomenal — I don’t even know where to begin.

So thrilled to be part of your day - after 10 years you and Myles got to start a brand new chapter. I was honored to get the best seat in the house to witness it! Much Love, Kathy -

Amazing officiant
Wow! Where do we begin? Kathy is an incredibly kind individual and we were so lucky to have worked with her to create and officiate our wedding ceremony. We sat down with her for our interview and by the end, we were talking like we were old friends catching up. She wrote the most beautiful ceremony we could have imagined. Every detail was so perfectly crafted to match our personalities and who we are as a couple. There wasn't a dry eye in the house. Family and friends expressed that it was the most special ceremony they have ever seen. Our parents were especially impressed and can't stop raving about her professionalism and warm delivery. We chose to write our own vows and purchased her hand-made vow books, which we highly recommend. Thank you, Kathy, for the most special day that we'll always remember.Wow! Where do we begin?

Now where do I start?!?!? THANK YOU, THANK YOU - Alex and Chris for sharing this beautiful review. I loved every minute of your wedding. From the gorgeous personal venue that fit you so perfectly, to your dad's escort and heartfelt words of love as he gave you away. All my best you both! Please keep in touch! -

Personable, reliable and a delight!
We cannot say enough amazing things about Kathy! We were introduced to her when my brother and sister-in-law used her two years earlier. She completely makes the wedding ceremony all about the couple. Our Nana was raving about her and we knew we had to ask her if she could do our wedding. What is so great about Kathy is that she takes the time to get to know the couple and what is important to them so that she has a strong core to write the ceremony around. She comes to your home and sits down with you to get to know you and make sure you’re comfortable. What’s great about that session is that she records it so she has it as a reference and to share with you on your one year anniversary. Kathy also has an amazing nature about her. She is incredibly calming, funny, And easy to work with! It was important to us that we had someone we were comfortable with. So much so that when we had to change our venue and date, we were willing to make sure that we could get Kathy to the new venue. She was very reasonable about the change of plans and we knew we could rely on her to make sure everything went smoothly. Working with Cathy is more like working with a friend or family member rather than a vendor! We are hopeful to be able to use her for more family events I would absolutely recommend her to anyone in the future!We cannot say enough amazing things about Kathy!

Kathy is just simply the best. We met with her to go over details of our wedding and she was extremely friendly and made us feel super comfortable. She truly cares about the bride and groom and wants to make sure everything is perfect. She’s responsive, takes the time to meet with you and go over every detail. Our ceremony was absolutely beautiful thanks to her.Kathy is just simply the best. We met with her to go over details of our wedding and she was extremely friendly and made us feel super comfortable.

A Ceremony to Remember
I have only attended Catholic wedding ceremonies so I had no idea what to expect. I cried so many happy tears when Kathy sent us the first draft of the ceremony script! This was more than we could have ever asked for! She made the process easy and fun! Guests who have been to 20 plus weddings said that this was the most memorable ceremony they had ever attended. She even went out of her way to research Bulgarian traditions we wanted to incorporate. Kathy was a memorable and amazing part of our special day.I have only attended Catholic wedding ceremonies so I had no idea what to expect.

The Best - Worth Every Penny!
Do not look any further for an officiant, because you must hire Kathy. I put my husband in charge of finding our officiant and he did not disappoint. Kathy was the first officiant we talked to, and after a few minutes of speaking with her, we knew she was “the one.” Not only could we immediately tell that she was passionate about what she does, but she felt like an old friend right off the bat. Kathy wrote us the most amazing ceremony that fit us and our personalities perfectly. Given that we are both not religious or extremely serious, the ceremony she wrote for us was sweet, simple, funny, and overall amazing. Our guests all raved about her and felt like she was a familiar friend they already knew. Leading up to our day, Kathy met with us in advance and conducted an interview of sorts to get to know us better. She recorded the video of the interview and will send it to us on our first wedding anniversary so that we can look back on it for years to come. After our interview, my husband commented that he wish he could talk to Kathy more often! This interview lead her to write such a personalized ceremony. Not only did she write our ceremony, but she contacted our vendors in advance, was prompt with all communication, and went above and beyond to make sure my grandmother was included in our ceremony by setting up a personal Zoom link for her. Words cannot express how grateful we are to Kathy!Do not look any further for an officiant, because you must hire Kathy. I put my husband in charge of finding our officiant and he did not disappoint.

Great experience with Kathy!
We got married in December 2020 and just started to plan it at the beginning of November 2020. We were originally working with another JP but she had an emergency 4 days before the wedding! She immediately connected us to Kathy, who thankfully was available. Kathy worked with the ceremony script that the other JP created, but she added her own touches that made it even more personal for us. Kathy was warm, professional, and very responsive/easy to get in touch with...we were still finalizing our vows and didn't really have many ideas and she was very helpful and quick to get back to us when we had questions. Kathy did a lovely job and she was a huge part in making our wedding day flawless and so special.We got married in December 2020 and just started to plan it at the beginning of November 2020.

Truly Kind & Caring
I wish I was writing this review post-wedding, but unfortunately Covid-19 had other plans. However, I can attest that Kathrine is a wonderful vendor to work with. She was so patient and kind while we were making up our minds about what to do on our original date (we opted to cancel eventually). She sent us many options for alternative locations for an elopement, did a lot of research on our behalf, and was always very responsive. I hope when we do reschedule she can once again be the one to marry us.I wish I was writing this review post-wedding, but unfortunately Covid-19 had other plans.

Kathy is awesome!
Kathy is awesome. We felt so comfortable with her right from the beginning. She really took the time to get to know me and my husband. The interview before we got married was a great opportunity to talk to about our story. She has a calming presence about her and we were so happy to have her marry us. She is super professional, on point and is willing to accommodate anyway she can. Would recommend Kathy to anyone.Kathy is awesome. We felt so comfortable with her right from the beginning.

Highly recommend!
Cannot say enough wonderful things about Kathy! From day one of planning, taking the time to getting to know us as a couple, to creating the most beautiful ceremony for our friends and family to share with us, she was amazing. Not to mention, she was so kind and supportive managing all our uncertainty during the pandemic. Highly recommend her wonderful services! Many family and friends reached out saying it was one of the best cemeronies they have witnessed - and that is all thanks to her!Cannot say enough wonderful things about Kathy!

Absolutely amazing!! Kathrine is top notch!
Kathrine was the officiant for our 20 yr vow renewal and she was nothing short of amazing! She met with us, listened to our love story and personalized our ceremony. She has a very warm spirit about her, which made her very pleasant to work with. Kathrine was extremely professional and everyone who attended our ceremony, commented on what a fantastic job she did! We would highly recommend her to anyone in need of an officiant! Thank you again for such a beautiful ceremony/experience!🥰Kathrine was the officiant for our 20 yr vow renewal and she was nothing short of amazing!

Thank you so much for your kind words. The story you and Damon shared with me will stay with me for many many years; I hope for my whole life. I see you both as role models of what marriage should be and how with work, communication and love, it is all possible. I am so honored to have witnessed your vow renewal. I wish you both 20 more happy, healthy years and then beyond! -

Unique and Memorable
I found Kathy on WeddingWire and am so glad we chose her. We chose her because of the personable and unique aspect she brings to the textbook ceremony speech by doing an interview and recording it with both parties, making it into a small video and then mailing it out to you for one year anniversary. We ended up not having this portion of the package as we ended up cancelling our formal ceremony/reception due to Covid and had a small and intimate elopement ceremony. She came to marry us and wrote each of us an email requesting personal questions directed at each of us in our relationship (i.e. what is it that you noticed about her first?) and she was able to make the ceremony personal, fun and something we both enjoyed and interacted in. I would recommend her for anyone getting married. She was irreplaceable and totally involved.I found Kathy on WeddingWire and am so glad we chose her.

Julia!
Thank you so much for your kind words. What a nice thing to start the day with! It was my pleasure to stand with you and Nick and your lovely family. You all made the best out of what has been a tough year. I look forward to celebrating with you again for your formal wedding in 2022 and getting your story preserved on video for years to come. I know you will have lots to share plus new married life memories too!
All my best to you both,

Wonderful!
Kathy with Ever After Memories is the most amazing officiant, I feel so luck and blessed that we met her! Getting married in 2020 was a struggle, but Kathy was with us every step of the way. She is so warm and kind, and made the whole process fun. She legally married us in June, and then officiated our “big” wedding in September. The vows she wrote for us, and how she personalized them and told our story was beyond special. Look no further than Ever After Memories. Kathy provides such a wonderful service and a very special experience!Kathy with Ever After Memories is the most amazing officiant, I feel so luck and blessed that we met her!

Emily, Thank you so much for sharing this! Yes, 2020 was quite a ride - but working with couples like you and Ken made it so worthwhile! Both of your ceremonies were so special and I'm so glad I got to be a part of them. Please keep in touch!

Wonderful and Genuine
We met Katherine at a Bridal Expo and we knew right away we wanted her to be our officiant. She is very genuine and great at her job. Her compilation of our video interview gave life to our ceremony. And best part of the ceremony, it left our guests thinking she knew us for a lifetime. I highly recommend her services!We met Katherine at a Bridal Expo and we knew right away we wanted her to be our officiant. She is very genuine and great at her job.

Kathy saved the day when we decided to cancel our original wedding ceremony in May due to COVID-19. We decided to have a small ceremony in our backyard that month and needed an officiant last minute. She was quick to respond to us and perfectly prepared the smaller ceremony. She did such a beautiful job that we had her officiant our September reception for the rest of the family to see!

Our wedding ceremony was a highlight thanks to Kathy!
We couldn't be happier with our decision to have Kathy as our wedding officiant. She was extremely helpful, friendly, accommodating, and made a beautiful impact on our wedding day. A few things that makes Kathy's service unique is she really cares about her couples and makes the time to get to know them. We had a lengthy conversation about our relationship, wedding day and future together with her. She films this interview and gives you a copy come your first year anniversary, something we are looking forward to have as a keepsake. We were also given the option and flexibility to truly personalize our ceremony. This was very important to us, we did not want a typical/standard/cookie-cutter ceremony. We wanted one that was meaningful and genuine to us, Kathy made that happen. In fact, our ceremony was the number one element our guests complimented us on (besides my husband's green suit). I could go on, but I recommend Kathy wholeheartedly and without any reservation. You will not regret having her be a part of your wedding day.We couldn't be happier with our decision to have Kathy as our wedding officiant.

Thank you so much for sharing these beautiful words. I really enjoyed getting to know both you and Peter and I'm so excited to see you build your family! You really made the ceremony your own from the love letter wine box to the polaroid pic at the end. Everything about it was perfectly you. I was just happy to be a part of it. Please stay in touch! - Kathy -

It's not a wedding without Kathy
We stumbled across Kathy during a wedding event at our Venue. We went to try the food but we left with something far greater. Kathy was amazing with our kids and put up with all of our questions about how to plan a wedding. Kathy felt like a part of the family and there is not a world where we renew vows in the future without her. Kathy is thoughtful, patient and answers questions you didnt even know you had. The ceremony she wrote was so personal and perfect- we laughed, got emotional, laughed again and it was more than we could have ever asked for. You would think she knew us our whole lives. If you dont have Kathy at your wedding you are simply missing out. I give her unlimited stars- call her now.We stumbled across Kathy during a wedding event at our Venue.

The best! Exactly what we envisioned!
After attending a friend's wedding last year, my husband I knew we wanted a more custom ceremony, one that felt like it was all about our love story. From the very first conversation, talking to Kathy felt like talking to a friend. We were down to a few choices and after our skype call with Kathy, the choice was so clear. The conversation just felt so natural and made us so excited about our wedding! If you don't know by now, Kathy also does a pre ceremony interview with you, and films it to send to you on your anniversary. This is not only the sweetest thing ever.. but also helped so much in figuring out the exact elements we wanted or didn't want in our ceremony. Even though she is the expert, Kathy was extremely open to any suggestions or requests we had. Fast forward to the day before our ceremony.. due to an illness in my family, I wanted to make some last minute changes to our ceremony and Kathy immediately worked with me to make it happen. The day of the wedding, I remember standing in the bridal suite feeling a little overwhelmed and nervous, getting ready to walk down the aisle. The door opened and Kathy came in and I immediately felt a sense of calm come over me, like an old friend had just walked in. My Grandmother wasn't physically able to make it to our wedding and in the midst (stress) of trying to figure out the logistics of how to face time her, Kathy stepped in and offered up the use of her own cell phone. She set it up on her tripod she had brought with her specifically for this purpose, started and ended the call. It means more to me than I can even describe that my Grandma was able to listen in and I will never forget that Kathy made this happen. You would think after the ceremony, Kathy's job would be done, but it wasn't. She stuck around to help us during photos- holding my bouquet, my jacket, and even taking some behind the scenes footage for us. Having an extra set of hands during that hour was something I didn't even know I would need. Kathy was definitely one of our best decisions and the day would not have been the same without her. I would recommend her to anyone. Our family and friends haven't stopped talking about how our wedding ceremony was their favorite they have ever seen. One of my bridesmaids even said to me "wow, your wedding ceremony was everything I wanted mine to be" My husband's grandmother wrote us a card shortly after our wedding and in it, reiterated how special and personal she thought our ceremony was. Moral of the story, Kathy is the best and you need her at your ceremony!After attending a friend's wedding last year, my husband I knew we wanted a more custom ceremony, one that felt like it was all about our love story.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write this amazing review! I am so happy to hear that all the little things add up to mean so much. I'm glad your grandmother was able to be there, even if it was only over the FaceTime. Getting to meet you and Josh, hearing your story, the long history you share - I'm so honored to have been a tiny part of that. You were my last wedding of 2019 and a great way to close a wonderful year of beautiful couples. Thanks so much!! Please keep in touch!
Best always, Kathy -

Perfect Experience
Our experience with Kathy at Ever After Memories was fantastic. She is so detailed and creates a ceremony tailored to your relationship. We had so many comments asking if she was someone we had known for a while. Kathy really takes the time to get to know all about you and your relationship during a taped sit down interview. She even sends it to you on your one year anniversary! I would recommend her a million times over.Our experience with Kathy at Ever After Memories was fantastic.
